A couple of years ago they were dubbed the "Find a way" Flames - This year's edition is dubbed the "Lost Their Way" Flames.

I think the coach is a big part of that. He looks like a dweeb and doesn't seem to know how to get a response outta the guys. After Toronto's third goal the camera showed him just looking down at his shoes for ten seconds. Sad!

lol - I know you know that there is a monitor installed behind the bench that he is looking at, but that said, I didn't like the hire at the time especially when you see what BB (not to be confused with BBB) is doing with the Wild in Minnesota.

I do but why would he be looking at the monitor when his team is getting their asses kicked for the second time in 3 nights? It was a short-handed goal, it's not like you're going to make on-the-fly system adjustments in that scenario. Same thing to me.

Beats me, but this hire in on the GM and right now it's not looking too good for a GM who still doesn't have a contract for next season.

I absolutely love this. The bottom six needed an upgrade and Wingels is a top notch 4th liner who has prodcued as a really good 3rd liner in the past. Stortini is LOL worthy, Robinson will likely be a career AHLer and a 7th is nothing. Surprised San Jose couldn't get a better deal, TBH.

Also this because Melnyk.
